Here is the deal on Hawaii.
Many sources have told me that often times if you are not a native and are living on the island you can be treated "differently". ( No offensive to native Hawaiians I am only stating what I've heard!)
The weather is awesome but you will be on an island with the only way out/in is by plane or boat, so island fever could set in at any time.
New housing has been built, depending on where you are stationed and is very nice (especially for the O's).
Deployments are different from squadron to squadron depending on who/what you are working with, so it is difficult to say if you or your spouse will be gone a lot.
Best of luck picking out your new duty station!
